Juan McGuinness believes technology has a role to play
Ramsey Commissioner Juan McGuinness says it makes sense to look at updating local authority legislation in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic.
It follows calls for Tynwald to modernise laws set out in the Local Government Act 2006.
Current rules prevent authorities from ratifying decisions remotely.
Mr McGuinness feels its important to utilise technology if necessary:
Government engaging with UK over international ferry levy plans
Isle of Man won't be affected by July 2026 changes to domestic voyages
Bottleneck car park shut over safety concerns
Council cites increased risk of storm surges as winds shift overnight
Forecasters warn of snow over higher ground later
Higher routes such as Mountain Road could be affected by slight accumulations
Dementia demand assessment underway as Public Health forecasting future need
Figures suggest Island prevalence of 0.7 percent, as government acknowledges demand likely to rise due to aging population
